Nice pass (finally) thj

Tyler has more talent than I thought and can be a good defender and rebounder.

Early gives us anything he becomes an instant fan fav.

so here is what phil is thinking ....

Tied up at the half. Good recovery by the Knicks. THJr took over a bit.

A top 60 pick? There are only 60 picks!

Have you ever heard of getting a diamond in the rough? This dude only has to refine his game but his energy you can't teach. He will eventually be a very good defensive reserve. I trust Phil's instincts on this. He probably sees a guy that has the infectious energy similar to a Rodman type and he wants to see if he can develop him over time. I like the pick.

Thanassis is very raw. He looks like a raw version of Ron Artest, in terms of his playing style and intensity out there. Obviously not the same skill level at this point, but I like the motor and I like the potential.

Listening to Hahn, Tyler, Brown, Thanasis are either not on the team or are competing for a final spot.

Bring in Tyler and let Thanasis play overseas for the year. Cut Brown. With all the talk over the makeup of the roster and the guard glut, I would not be surprised to see another trade before camp that opens up a roster space.

Knicks open up a 10 point lead as the defense leads to fast breaks

So i've never posted a negative comment about anything? Surely you don't want to get into this with me cuz you'll lose such a dumb argument. I honestly think there's a lot to like about Thanasis. Besides i'd side with Phil's judgment on this even if I didn't have an opinion on him i'd trust his eye for talent over someone else posting here. Phil has made it clear he's raw so what's the big issue?

Love how this team gets more intense rather than shrink when they get down. They have some mental toughness in addition to the Team Oriented mental approach of these young players. Fish is doing a great job with these kids.

Hardaway may have had a rough start but it's clear he is in a league of his own out there.
